Abstract
Portland State is officially an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI), which means that at least 10% of PSU’s undergraduate students identify as AAPI and at least 50% of its students are Pell-eligible.
During national AANAPISI Week (Sept. 25-Oct. 1), our panel explores and celebrates what it means to be an AANAPISI and how a new federal grant from the U.S. Department of Education will increase our capacity to support AAPI student success in service to our whole campus community.
